Hello all . I haven't posted in a while but I'm still out 4 times a week happily running .

So today was my second virtual race this year and I chose one of my favourite 10k routes . A good few hills and inclines but after 2 years of running they get easier.

Anyway my 10k time today for this event was 1hr 44 seconds. My fastest time for this route so I'm pleased with that.

Happy running to you all and for those on the IC I hope you are recovering well.

Well done you!! I cheated and ran a flatter route mostly along a river and a canal. But it is a lovely route with part of it being a nature reserve. My first virtual race and I’m so glad i did it.

Well done you. Your route sounds so much nicer than mine as I run on pavements next to the roadsπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Good run and time for you today Buddy34, still running 4 times a week is excellent, you must be almost at Scotland on your Lejog journey, as for me, I ran 11K on Wednesday and my 19th (not) parkrun this morning.

Had to cancel my last hospital appointment as I have had a stinking cold. Which means I’m still in the brace till at least Nov 3rd now, which is frustrating. But not as frustrating as having had the appointment and still being in the brace (if you see what I mean).

Great time, too, considering you had the challenge of inclines! My route was as flat as a pancake here in the Fens. πŸ˜€

Enjoy the rest of your day, knowing you have achieved! πŸ˜€πŸ‘

Thanks. It was very wet and extremely windy early morning but by the time I went out the weather had calmed down a good bit. Although with the sweat on my clothes you'd have thought it was pouring🀣

Well done Buddy! That sounds like a dream time to me! I’m off to do mine with Dexy5, UpTheStanley, cheekychipmunks, linda9389, and Wimborne tomorrow. There’s another group in Stratford on Avon and Beachcomber in his native Yorkshire so watch out for multiple posts tomorrow! And I suspect there’ll be loads of others doing it too!

Fabulous time Buddy, that’s a target if I ever did see one for us tomorrow. I suspect your hills are a good deal hillier thanks ours too! It would be interesting to know how many HU and non HU are doing this. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ
